Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2352097A1] In message exchange, to notify other party of communication of a user status related to other software which is activated from the software used for the message exchange. In a client (10), a message processing unit (13) implemented by IM outputs activated application information related to the application activated by a user operation accepted by an operation accepting unit (12) and IM status information indicating the status of a message in the IM, and a window monitoring unit (16) monitors the windows displayed on a display unit (14) and outputs window status information indicating the statuses of the windows. In the case where these pieces of information satisfy a condition defined in a rule definition stored in a rule storing unit (15), a rule interpreting unit (17) returns a status message defined in association with the condition to the message processing unit (13) so that the other client is notified of the message via a communication unit (11).
